When we get home following the event, we're just FILLED with fairy inspiration, and we will quickly take up crafting projects with that theme.
When I saw Susan Tierney-Cockburn's newest introduction for Sizzix, "Secret Garden," I thought it would be fun to use these creative designs and have the kids' friends come to the studio to join us for a fairy-themed "after-party"following our day at the Fairy House Tour.
Oh! Videos!
